    If i spot an ipc ,great comps,sun, last broadcast, crafty,etc i steer clear, i generally search and if a reg poster is posting month after month from that site, i either pm them and say ive spotted some new ones they havent seen so they can post them, or leave them be, if its a comp when i search that an assortment of posters have posted then i see it as ok. xxxxx
    Best one though has to be Nossondu's name tells me not to do the sun, so thats a subtle reminder. xxx

    Apart from Pick Me Up which I try to post every week it's a case of if I find a comp & it's not on then I post it.
    2025 - finally back comping after a stressful house move - send me fairy dust please

    peeps really need to chill out a bit more if they are racing to post comps for the thanks, which is the only reason I can think of why you would want to try and "beat" someone else, which to me is what they're trying to do?

    If I get an email about a comp/stumble across a comp then I'll search for it here. If I find it I enter comp/click thanks/subscribe so that when it comes to comps ending I know I've already entered it. If it hasn't already been posted then I post it :D
